Real Madrid to Re-Sign Álvaro Carreras from Benfica

News summary

Real Madrid is set to re-sign Spanish left-back Álvaro Carreras from Benfica for €50 million, with the transfer expected to be completed soon and structured in installments, including academy player Rafael Obrador moving to Benfica. Carreras, a former Real Madrid academy player who later joined Manchester United without making a senior appearance, has established himself at Benfica with 68 appearances. Manchester United will receive a share of the transfer fee due to a sell-on clause but are not expected to activate their buy-back option. The transfer follows Real Madrid's defeat to PSG in the Club World Cup semifinals and ongoing injury issues with current left-back Ferland Mendy, who is likely to leave. The move supports new manager Xabi Alonso’s strategy of recruiting young talent for both immediate impact and long-term success. Additionally, Real Madrid faces uncertainty regarding forward Rodrygo, who may depart during the summer transfer window.
